Why families in Retford choose Mrs Moss
Retford families often want support that fits around school runs, clubs and busy evenings. Because sessions happen in your home, your child learns somewhere familiar — no extra drive to a tutoring centre, and no waiting in a car park.
Whether your child is in KS1 or heading towards Year 6 SATs, sessions are shaped around what they are learning at school right now: phonics and early reading, comprehension, writing stamina, number sense, times tables and confident problem-solving.
Pricing is simple: online sessions are £22 and in-home sessions are £27 for 45 minutes, with a free 15-minute meet before you commit. All sessions are strictly 1-to-1.
Mrs Moss is a qualified, currently practising primary teacher (QTS, PGCE, MA Education, BSc Hons) with an Enhanced DBS. She lives and works locally around South Wheatley, DN22, so Retford sits comfortably inside the in-home coverage radius.
Seasonal tip: many Retford parents book a short block before Year 6 SATs or over the summer to avoid the “summer slide” — always at a calm pace, never cramming for the sake of it.
Not sure whether in-home or online is the better fit? Start with a free meet, then choose the format that feels right — and switch later if routines change.
